The dude that wrote that article has been writing completely incorrect dogshit takes about high speed rail for the LA Times for a decade+. He has literally spent his life trying to discourage people from supporting rail, and has danced every possible dance he can think of to try to support his bad arguments. He isn’t

I’d wager part of it has to do with daily-drivability advantages for dumb drivers that don’t care to either improve their driving skills/knowledge and/or invest in snow tires.

Why is it so bad that dealers are auctioning, but people that flip the cars aren’t getting dragged the same way? I’m no fan of dealers here, but if people are willing to pay, and going to pay, that’s just capitalism. If someone wants to pay more than you to cut, then they want the car more than you do, so you can wait.

Sure, if oil companies stop getting subsidies, then it is a level playing field.

IMO, there never should’ve been a tax credit. If EV’s are really the answer to the next generation of vehicles then they should fight ICE on a level playing field. People should buy them because they are better in one or more metrics that matter to consumers than their ICE counterparts. Tax breaks just try to push us

I still think they should call any upcoming EV sedan from Chevy the ChEVelle, then make the Buick version an Electra.

Honestly, as dumb as Manchin is on a lot of other policy decisions, this is the right approach. If it means pushing out all these made up dates to have X% of cars on the road as EVs then so be it. Reducing our reliance on China and other countries as much as we can is directionally correct. Automakers are upset

“Amber Heard Verdict Sends A Message To Black Women Everywhere”

Every time I watch that scene I feel like I’m high on coke. In a film that is filled with intense moments this one is both intense and frenetic. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched this movie. One time, I came home and turned the TV on. Goodfellas was mid way through so watched it till the end (pre DVR days).

…or c) these movies are filmed on a green screen and it’s entirely common for people to appear in scenes together without ever having met.

What would you like to see more of at Jalopnik as a site?

No slideshows for an entire week!

No, they haven’t. 

Neither the Haas or the Red Bull will look like that. Haas showed a fake rendering, and Red Bull even said the RB18 won’t be the car they displayed.

As usual The Root has gone the way of Fox News for clicks and likes. Here is the actual story: The press trying to frame this is David Chapelle killing affordable housing for poor people. It’s not that simple. They offered a plan to get his $65 million investment, then switched up the project presumably to get tax

Max finished 1st in Wins (10)... 1st in Pole Positions (10)... 1st in Podiums (18)... tied for 1st in Fastest Lap (6)... 1st in Total Laps Led (652)... and finally 1st in Points. I would say Max earned this Championship and if Lewis had won it I would call That unfair. 

Quick little thought experiment where we swap Silverstone and Abu Dhabi. Lets imagine they were still tied for points going into Silverstone, and that pass that took out Verstappen still happened. Would it just be a 10s penalty, or would it have been much worse because more was at stake? That logic was applied at the

Whoa, interesting. But it sounds like he noticed his brakes were failed/failing, pulled over to inspect, but then kept driving again? And then intentionally did not use a runaway truck ramp. And then chose to hit dozens of people instead of one semi truck. And then closed his eyes and smashed into everyone. I’m not so

If you think F1 is no longer a sport because of questionable officiating decisions, I'm afraid you don't watch many sports.

Myself and every other Wisconsinite I know that serves these will grind the meat at home immediately before serving. Serving pre-ground chuck from a tube is disgusting!
